To solve for x, we can begin by dividing both sides of the equation by 102.5:
(x - 11.92) = 71.6 / 102.5
Simplifying the right side of the equation:
(x - 11.92) = 0.6975609756097561
Then, we can add 11.92 to both sides of the equation:
x = 0.6975609756097561 + 11.92
Simplifying the right side of the equation:
x = 12.617560975609756
